The Conduit Review (IGN)

[seb200289]

True

[Macman7330]

Honestly, I didn't like this game so much. It's my first FPS on wii and the controls were HARD to get used to at first. I only go back to it just for its multiplayer but that has its own challenge.

[shredurguitar]

Fuck yes. Got this game for 10$ at Blockbuster NEW.

[bulldog300]

I wonder how big of a check IGN got for this one.

[TheLovethatkills]

WTF, the all seeing eye?

[Mangadget999]

that mohter f**cking anotation...

[TurningJappanesse]

Wow, the first good ign review. Nice...

[MrJ567isback]

Games like this are the reason why everyone should have a Nintendo Wii.

[XC0MB4TXEV0LV3D]

@nintendude444 BY far the best wii game let alone one of the most addictive games ive played in a long time! The online is insanly amazing!

[XC0MB4TXEV0LV3D]

@nintendude444 Awesome! I just wanted the controler for monster hunter Tri, what an epic game!

[XC0MB4TXEV0LV3D]

@nintendude444 Yeah, I am getting a copy of goldeneye with that golden controler soon :)

[XC0MB4TXEV0LV3D]

@nintendude444 I know I ment if it would still be a good purchase if you/I have played the top end FPS games (halo, battlefield..)

[SultanaKidStudios]

@nintendude444 shame this guy left ign in april 2010

[mamasaymakossa]

You cant spell ignorant without IGN.

[hermosapeach]

can you use the wii classic controller pro for this game? Im old school baby!!! lol...

[777prayser]

@hermosapeach you can in conduit 2 ign is stupid they gave conduit 2 7.5 conduit 2 is way beter

[hermosapeach]

@777prayser Tnxs, yeah just saw the stupid ass review for C2 have you seen the one for the new MK it's even worst...

[salamagogo]

@nintendude444 not sure what you dont get...the verdict is just a quick summary of the review...the reviewers feelings on the title in a nutshell

[XC0MB4TXEV0LV3D]

Is this anygood if you have a xbox and ps3 like me?

[nit0134]

this is WAY better than halo 3, i have this game and i never get bored of it, in halo 3 i tend to get bored easly, this game is worth getting, but i cant wait for conduit 2 coming out next month:D

[staticrubber]

the ''all seeing eye''wow.the illuminati have fucked everything up.

[lilarnation]

whats sup wif the illuminati symbol?

[Kelsssssssssssss]

yes finally a good wii shooter because metroid prime 3 never exsisted

[GuitarChecks]

@Kelsssssssssssss metroid prime 3 corruption is a first person adventure game

[100espada]

Liked the story, liked the graphics, but single player too short and boring, and when I played the multiplayer, it was massively infected with glitches and hackers.

Conduit 2 looks awesome, though, looks to be hugely improved!

[TheRoyce1999]

I will get this soon. or I hope.

[gamingrocks100]

Notice how he admitted SEVERAL TIMES that the game is generic, yet still gave it an 8.6. I think he was praising the game just to get his name put in the game's credits.

The review score may be an 8.6, but the review, itself, reads a 6.8, LOL.

[lalaxbo]

Best FPS game for the Wii ! Multiplayer is so awesome ! I like how you can customize your controls and the camera :D They are few FPS-games on Wii that has that feature ! High Voltage Software are awesome developers and i can't wait for Conduit 2 ! :)

My friend code is 2788 1201 7813 8074 and Conduit code is 2788 1201 7813 8074.

[lalaxbo]

@lalaxbo I wrote the Conduit friend code wrong :( here it is : 0216 9291 3413 ! :)

[gamingrocks100]

@lalaxbo Have you ever played CoD Reflex, World at War, Black Ops, or GoldenEye?

You should try them, I think you'll absolutely love them. :)

[gamingrocks100]

@gamingrocks100 There are very few FPS AT ALL that have that much control customization, LOL.

[lalaxbo]

@gamingrocks100 I have thought about GoldenEye :) Because i love James Bond and FPS games on Wii :) thx for the tip man ! :)

[gamingrocks100]

@lalaxbo It's WAY better than Quantum of Solace, ESPECIALLY on Wii.

[lalaxbo]

@gamingrocks100 Don't worry i have never planned to buy it anyway :) The Conduit is awesome as hell ! I can't wait for Conduit 2 :)

[redfoxbennaton]

Its not even full FPS. It uses platforming.

[91hawx]

conduit kind of reminds me of halo



[theflame231]

it to hard to do

[Moria1995]

What is better for the Wii. The Conduit or Black Ops?

[SectorCodec]

@Moria1995 Conduit, Black Ops lags on the Wii.

[TheCristianalvarez]

@Moria1995 probably if you are going to buy now i would suggest black ops because i own the conduit and black ops and the hackers on the conduit is just ot big of an issue but i would suggest buying black ops because it has pretty good controls and you could use a classic controller pro and you'll be able to use on

Conduit 2

[ThePandaBrothers]

@TheSever67 thats a lie the conduuit is good but its no metoid prime

[GunsNRoses581]

"Finaly a FPS that doesn't suck". About what I heard from YOU, Metroid Prime 3 was awesome....

[DARKSAMUS386]

@GunsNRoses581

MP3 isn't a shooter

[GunsNRoses581]

@DARKSAMUS386 It is. They said it in the review.

[SuperBored5]

@GunsNRoses581 Metroid Prime isnt officialy known as a FPS

[legofreak18]

@GunsNRoses581 metroid prime 3is a FPA

first-person-adventure

[Headshotgod]

Metroid Prime 3 / Trilogy is a FPA.

[gamingrocks100]

@GunsNRoses581 Metroid Prime 3 was a First-Person Adventure, not a First-Person Shooter.

[VDOGamerGraY]

@GunsNRoses581 Metroid Prime 3 is a First Person Adventure not a Shooter.

[ThePossumReport]

@GunsNRoses581 thats not an fps, metroid prime 3 is an adventure game thats in first person

[TheLovemusicguy]

@GunsNRoses581 oh and watch igns metroid prime trioligy review its the same guy so he haves played it

[daftmarzo]

@GunsNRoses581 Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is considered First Person Adventure.

[EpicWinMan88]

@GunsNRoses581 I think he meant an FPS that has a multiplayer

[MRsmellycat76]

@GunsNRoses581 Haaaah... Are you stupid he talked about the most FPSes.

[thealienking0007mgs]

@GunsNRoses581 thats not an fps lol i know it should be but it is not

[liberate29]

Pffff!!!!!!!!

Another mediocre, "mature" game that gets a pass solely because it's on the Wii.

[Macman7330]

This guy makes it sound as if it's BETTER than other FPS.

[danieldude19]

@Macman7330 it is

[steviefan96]

@danieldude19 I agree 100% this game is AWESOME

[TheMrAdax]

Reviewer is an idiot. The reason Shooters are superior on wii is because of the amazing wii remote control system.

[ericinfiteful]

lol redsteel

[MetroidFan85]

Come on Conduit bros, hurry up and play Multiplayer free for all! I can barely find a server with people in it! I can't go back to activision games all the time! They feel too much the same! The Conduit is one of the few multiplayer games that are balenced! Especially on the wii!

[SwooshParker]

Should I get this or GoldenEye?

I was thinking of waiting for Black Ops but I would just get that on my 360 if I really wanted it.. ?

[mmaaat123]

@SwooshParker i'm waiting for black ops on my xbox, but i also have a wii and goldeneye got a 9 from ign so i would go with goldeneye.

[tothebeach100]

@SwooshParker you should get goldeneye now (I have it and it is awesome). Then, when the conduit 2 comes out (march I think) you should get that.

[agentx114567]

@tothebeach100 out on 2/15...bday too :D

[TheOddOneOne]

That's what I want, a straight forward game where you just shoot stuff. Not extreme boss fights(Metroid Prime 3) and nerve racking timed sequences (Red Steel).

[santtu13]

@TheOddOneOne yeah

[darthjump]

Redsteel 2 has cloned the Conduits customisation controlls!

[TheAnimeCrave]

Finally. A fair review where the guy isnt comparing this to other games.

[ProBoy25]

illuminati game

[randomenvelope]

wtf? I watched some other IGN review and they had a negetive review WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON!?!

[YoYoulYYo]

*cough*redsteel*cough* haha

[Gowatch3kb]

So nostalgic. That's why I like shooters for wii. They remind me alot of goldeneye and perfect dark. Fun wii game. Better than fuckin halo 3

[randomenvelope]

@Gowatch3kb dude, stop trolling, people don't wanna take shit from you, lets just play our games, on whatever system we want... IN PEACE!!!

Halo 3 is really awkward and the alien toys look gay and purple but halo reach has gone to a lot more advanced level. I didn't find halo 3 the best shooter out there at all but I don't complain about games on systems that I don't own, I sometimes do that but every time I get get mails from 12 year olds, so I respect other people's gaming, you should too.

[wweironman12XBLGT]

@Gowatch3kb Uh no it's not... No Wii game is better than Halo 3 but it is better than Halo Reach because Reach was a flunk, Halo 3 is amazing and is better than any video game I've ever played. But this game is amazing and revolutionized Wii FPS's.

[wweironman12XBLGT]

@Gowatch3kb Uh no it's not... No Wii game is better than Halo 3 but it is better than Halo Reach because Reach was a flunk, Halo 3 is amazing and is better than any video game I've ever played. But this game is amazing and revolutionized Wii FPS's.

[Ext3rmin8er101]

@wweironman12XBLGT Fuck you fag. This is waay better than Gaylo 3. Even Killzone 2 is better than anything on the Gaybox 360.

[wweironman12XBLGT]

@Ext3rmin8er101 Killzone 2 sucks with it's terrible gameplay and stupid ass multiplayer. Halo 3 is fun and has sold better than any other exclusive video game on any console so get your facts straight, this game does not even compare to Halo 3. No Gaystation 3 game can compare to Xbox 360, Gaystation 3 sucks. Fuck you, you are the fag and you suck at every video game you play and your mom is a whore and you are blocked.

[Ext3rmin8er101]

@wweironman12XBLGT fag. "No gaystation 3 game can compare to 360" 360 has no action game as good as God of War 3.

[fruitypebbles904]

@wweironman12XBLGT ps3 has mroe games than xbox. xbox has gears and halo and forza. ps3 has uncharted 1 and 2 (goty from everyone in 2009) and 3 this year, killzone 2 & 3 which got good reviews, lbp 1 and 2 which is a big improvement over the 1st, god of war 3, twisted metal coming this year, resistance series, rachet and clank series, a new sly 4, infamous 1 and 2 coming this year and mgs4 which is one of the best games ive ever played. go fuck yourself fanboy

[wweironman12XBLGT]

@fruitypebbles904 Resistance sucks, God of War sucks, Killzone sucks lol, PS3 doesn't really suck but it is still not as good as Xbox 360.

[fruitypebbles904]

@wweironman12XBLGT only a fanboy says that kind of shit

[redfoxbennaton]

@Gowatch3kb So do the graphics. LOL

[gamingrocks100]

@Gowatch3kb What exactly makes them feel nostalgic, to you?

[travideo20]

@Gowatch3kb Be careful what you say about Halo 3... There are a lot of xbox people out there that are willing to stab a knive through you for that comment... But im not one of em i play conduit 24 hours a day. Until 2 comes out.

[lordgiratina7000]

@travideo20 i play conduit everyday...like 1 hour or 2 and the rest is playing black ops XD its so addictive >.>

[HelloxHixWatsup]

this is so wierd. not that i dont liek this game because i LOVE it.. but did this get a better score than metroid other m?? xD

[SwooshParker]

I get that nobody would care if it was on 360 but that's because you'd be comparing it to 360 games. However it was made for Wii and with its limitations which makes it great because the 360 can go further with their shooters than Wii can. High Voltage proved this type of game on Wii can be done.

[PLANBpenguin]

lol bigest masonic game ever

[TNT5201994]

anybody can add me just cheak out my vids

[0kill13]

I heard call of duty is getting wii speak support

[carsontroeh]

metroid prime didnt suck.. nor was it a port

[Hawk9611]

If anyone still plays the conduit and has wii speak message me your friend code and i will give you mine.

[psno1994]

This was better than most ppl give it credit for. Although it is true with an online match of over like 8 ppl it will lag and that sucks. But the only real issue online is hackers. Hope there's some way to report hackers to be banned in the sequel

[Lostworld711]

It's $20 used at gamestop. Now is the time to buy!

[graypanda97]

add me

3954 1382 3470 and give me your code too so we can play

[glitchman161]

(cough) red steel (cough) LOL I loved that!

[ICURUOK]

Great review and great game

[Tannequa92]

the allseeing eye ah for the gradebade and wat else hes working for a sicrut society emm... dosnt that ring any bells

[theangelsoul13]

ahem red steel jaja

[hopo182]

on online , does it have a team deathmatch , or is it just free for all??

[gabrielokafor]

@hopo182 Nope, there are lots of online modes

[godzilla2845]

@hopo182 yes it does have it

[maximusthebeast1]

picking this up for fifteen bucks tomorrow.

along with some Mario bros game which ill probably sell on ebay

[whodat007]

killuminati!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!

[iamjordandavoll]

this game sucks. the second one will be better

[mo123813]

8.6 Im shocked!

[swissman95]

@mo123813 Me 2. :o

[Halo4e32011XBOX720]

Sweet!

[BiggDaddyBubbles]

@Democod i completely agree. i just bought the game and thinking weather i should return it or not.....should i?

[Redknight345]

Finnally not a crappy port like modern warfare reflex.

[sk8luv333]

will this game be a letdown if im used to 360 games like MW2, fallout, etc..??

[Grandtendo54321]

@sk8luv333 I'm pretty sure it will. If you played those games already, then I wouldn't play this one.

[JaySeeAndWe]

@sk8luv333 yeah =/

[DistantJ]

@sk8luv333 Depends what you want. For me it was a better game than MW2 and Fallout because it had a fun story and colourful levels and everything was very straightforward 'get from A to B and shoot lots of monsters', really old-school and that's the kind of FPS I like, but if you're looking for a hardcore game it's definitely not like that at all.

[gabrielokafor]

@sk8luv333 It wasn't to me, so I dont see why it should be to you.

[withuwithuwithuwithu]

the conduit sucks and everyone i know that has it got stuck at the same spot in the story mode and just stopped playing it. the multiplayer might be even worse than the story mode. it takes 2 full clips right in the chest to kill somebody with most of the weapons. one plus is that the animation of mr ford pulling out that usp45 always gives me a boner

[thepaesesai]

@withuwithuwithuwithu who cares what u think.its what you hate , what you like and what i like and what i hate.people are different.

[piggygobyebye]

Everyone talks about how good this game looks. To this I must ask: what the fuck is wrong with your eyes. Halo 2 looked better than this. Mario Galaxy looked better than this. Fuckin' Metroid Prime looked better than this.

[mick5000x]

if you suffer through a bad control game *cough*cough*red steel*cough* -.-

[MegaJagex]

My name is jaybird

Wii speak: yea

Fc: 4598 - 3207 - 2182

Feel free to add me!!

[Gibsonsgman1214]

The Conduit sucks, I hate this game....the multiplayer= laggy as hell, The story= overdone as a bitch, the graphics= terrible

Resolution: I have a wii and a 360, the 360 is worth the money for everything, the online is great, the wii is shit its a little kid system....fuck it

[ilovemusicfyi]

@Gibsonsgman1214 Lol i agree but i got a new xbox 2 weeks ago and it already got the rrod. Ps3 owns all. (i dont even have one lol)

[Gibsonsgman1214]

@ilovemusicfyi i played mine for 28 hrs straight and it ddnt even overheat, i guess its just the luck of the draw....

[oobietime8]

Well what about metroid prime 3? well thats a first person adventure... but still..... you know

[BlastHardRock]

We Wii (lol) owners deserve these kinds of games, because we had the courage of buying a GOOD console.

And hooray for achievements, I just wished the Wii would do some update to incorporate achievements with all the games, and a system to upload the achievements to the Nintendo Channel, make some sort of Nintendo Channel accounts, etc...

I just hope that all this that I just said comes true, it would be AWESOME.

[andymatandy]

huuhm red steel^^

[losartandeterment806]

wow those graphics look phenomenal great review!

[toxicvidz28]

see my review on the game

[spakwee]

ESPECIALLY if you only have a wii.

[mr931126]

this game came from nowhere and now its blowjob,, eh i mean mindblowing all the wii fans/gamers :P

[Raicun27]

WAIT WAIT WAIT!!!!! Are you forgeting Metroid Prime Trilogy?!? Let alone Prime 3? Those games had amazing graphics, a good story, great controls, and fused hardcore and casual gaming together seamlessly!

[Coldplay453]

@Raicun27 I hated metroid prime 1 it was 2 complicated, i barely passed 17%, do you think metroid 3 is better than the conduit?

[Raicun27]

@Coldplay453 well i think they both have their advantages. Metroid Prime had a good combination of adventure and shooting aspects, and the Conduit had a good story involved in the shooting- genre.

[Alex95rlz]

The Conduit and Red steel 2 are the best shooters on wii. Nice review overall but i expected more than 8.5, the single player is awesome and the multipayer is addictive

[aapch1]

@Alex95rlz i agree, but you cant over look what you have to compare the conduit to, its a great game, very addictive, mind numbing, but it is slightly repetitive, and hardly nobody gets online any more

[steviefan96]

@Alex95rlz i would say 9/10 or 10/10

[idntevenpic]

@giddig makes u feel like u have some what a real gun but yes it is really good with wii zapper except u got too flick the nunchuck to throw a grednade and flick you wiimote to do a melee so if you try doing that with the wiizapper then its not going to be good for u like when u want to throw a grednade u do melee and when u need to do a melee u throw a grednade

[Nintenweirdo]

I dont like the game I think its too hard that it becomes very frustrating like the 2 last missions I already beat the game but its not worth it the ending was really bad also the story its a little too cliche the only good thing about this game i think is the online gameplay but if you are a HARDCORE gamer of FPS I said give it a try you may like it or you may not...

[XpaXorZ]

'm not sure why there was so much hype about this game. It looks no better than a good Xbox 1 game. Compare this to Splinter Cell Chaos Theory.

[PHILRYABKIN]

The Conduit is an epic win.While I play games like Halo 3 and Modern Warfare 2.I find this game to be really fun.

[samu350]

@PHILRYABKIN really good game, but nothing like epic, halo 3, metroid prime 3 and red steel 2 are epic, but this is just good

[Bakucryptid77]

@PHILRYABKIN You, my friend, are awesome. I commend you for not only standing up for the game but also for comparing it to such big name titles. if you want to give friend codes i would be honored.

[PHILRYABKIN]

@Bakucryptid77 Yes lets get out friend codes.Mine is 3094-9876-0660.I also have Wii Speak.

[Bakucryptid77]

@PHILRYABKIN my wii is down but it will be up later 2day. i will give u mine then. i do not have wii speak though :(

[TheShdwdrgn]

@PHILRYABKIN Same here. I found the game at Wal-Mart for a bargian: $18.95 for a copy.

[Samladdy]

@PHILRYABKIN Agreed, its deffinetly not classed as original or new to some gamers but for Wii owners its truly epic, which is a win for Wii because I believe this is a awesome game that deserves alot more credit from what some people give it.

[crazyjorge2111]

@Samladdy yea but it has original xbox style graphics and the multiplayer is bs. The only cool thing is that you can use motion control.

[santtu13]

@PHILRYABKIN yeah

[optimusandratchet]

so excited for conduit 2 the first look in nintendo power is amazing

[msvideogame]

does enyone think theat the wii can handle half-life 2?

[GameReviewsYoshi]

not redsteel 2 from what i heard

[irthemann]

what pistol is that !?!?!?!

the one with the red dot

[SodaManFTW]

@irthemann u find it in one of the room you can open with the ASE

[samu350]

@irthemann is the hvs45, is a secret pistlo what is just like the golden gun from 007 golden eye, with that i just mean: one hit, one kill, but that is only with the weak enemys

[xXbuster09Xx]

KOOL

[xXbuster09Xx]

KOOL

[WiiReviewIt]

*COUGH* RED STEEL!

xD

[EliteWalrus]

He was generous. What I liked about the multiplayer was that a marker popes up every time I killed any enemy. I'm going to go play MW2 now.

[DemSpecSniperXP]

@EliteWalrus um if your talking about the hit marker, call of duty did NOT invent it. if your not going on about that then my bad.

[EliteWalrus]

@DemSpecSniperXPNo EliteWalrus here. I wasn't. I was talking about the skull that pops up after a kill. In Halo, I will always find myself asking "Did I kill him?" And what was the first game to use hit markers?

[DemSpecSniperXP]

@EliteWalrus i dont know what game used hit markers first but there have been alot of games before call of duty.

[chrisbjames]

ok is this good i wanna get it so tell me everythin pls

[JeReL19]

3:06 Grhm Red Steel. That was funny.

By far this was the best score I've seen from a review on the Conduit. Gamespot dogged it.

[Infenro]

Honestly I think 360 is a much better well rounded and easy choice of a system but really the Wii is till making games unique and of course keeping them feeling like real Nintendo games. I have both and I play both alot so it's just whatever. No flaming needed really guys.

[AndrewOfHell]

Damn, a game to get my Wii freak back on! Oh and if you honestly would like the best gaming experience in the world, save up those pennies for a gaming PC ;)

[UltimateNarutoDBZfan]

bought the conduit. sold it. I MIGHT give it another try, but the online was just so chancy. It doesn't matter so much on connection strength as I have a 54mbps connection, but I'm Thinking it might be your distance from the server connection. I could just hardly find any un-laggy games and there was such little weapon options.. I couldn't keep it......

[Thegokugohanson]

dude by the game again then pm me so we can play :D

[masterbassist93]

get a usb eithernet connecter from nyko. it should help with all the online
